Bird Land

Hi everyone!

Here are the little birds I mentioned in my last post.

They are so easy and fun to make.

The best part was using supplies and scraps I already had.

I haven't decided what to do with these little birdies yet, I just enjoyed making them. I will probably just let them hang out in my craft room for future inspiration, or give them away or use them to embellish a gift.

I just love birds don't you?

Just think of the possibilities! You can use any color or embellishment to give your little bird his or her own personality.

Yesterday, I noticed this Raven sitting on the house behind our home.

I grabbed my zoom lens and shot this picture from our bedroom window. Hopefully the neighbors in that house didn't look out and see me with my camera pointed directly at their house. LOL!

I see these Ravens every once in a while, and love to hear their "caw" sound. I found this interesting link if you are interested, click HERE.

I wish we had some more interesting birds here in the desert, but most of the time I see and hear the English Sparrow. I know there are more out there, but for now I will just have to "create" my own little birdies from scratch. :-)

What cute birds! You are so creative. I love the green one especially.We are expecting snow and very cold weather here this week. I was hoping we'd seen the last of it, but I guess winter isn't over yet.

These are adorable Becca!!! I love birds! You should see the giveaway sign I won. It has a sweet bird on it. I have to post about it.I wish you could see all the amazing birds here. I love ravens too...they have a really unique personality. Very smart!But I really love these birds you made!!

Hi Becca,I'm sorry that I haven't been commenting on your blog lately, I'm still read the posts I have missed, cause you make the loveliest things! Like these birdies, so cute! Do you sell them too? Anyway, just stopped by to say, have a good day!Maureen

I just have to add that I'm in love w/ the pic of your kitty, Shatzie, in the sidebar... the one below Fetzer & the lilies & above Little Becky... which that's a hoot, too, but Shatzie is ADORABLE!!! =)

How sweet your little birds are! I just adore your photography, you bring everything so alive with it! I'm working on becoming a better photographer now that I'm blogging and sharing my photos.

Thank you for your Anniversary wishes to us, we shall have a wonderful one... The Man will be choosing his gifts this week, very likely Hunting gear *winks* which is his particular passion and hobby. His eyes glaze over when we walk into a Cabelas in much the same as mine do when I go Treasure Hunting! *winks*

I am new to your blog, but I am a cat lover and I just love your blog. I also have not children, but my animals do just fine:-) They are spoiled and I treat them like my kids. I only have a few minutes to look around, but will be back this weekend to check out your blod when I have time to really enjoy!!!

Hi Becca, nice to meet you! I just found you over at French Buttons. Your little birds are SO sweet. I love your pix - I'm new to texture ( I just discovered Kim Klassen too ) and you are an insiration for sure. I added myself to your list of followers and grabbed your button. I'll be back for sure.<3

Love your photo! You got a great shot! I am crazy about the little birds you are making, too! I sewed some tonight...but not sure about the results! I love making small projects! Wish I could look over your shoulder! Hugs! ♥

Ca c'est un point que je connais bien. Almost all my *broderies * I do with that stiich. You can see some on the blog * les tricots de Béatrice De, couture et bricolage *. Just le dérouler un peu. There are samples of imbroderies I had done on lillres felt boots (to put sweets in them) . Had sold them to a big store in London. But before, I had done samples for me, as souvenirs. Bright colors.

Hi I'm Becca! I love photography, crochet, and just about anything else crafty, so quite often you will find the photos I share here are of the things I make. I hope you will find your visit here relaxing and inspiring!
